Green tea extract(GTE) was added to pall bread, prepared by the straight-dough method, and its effects on shelf-life(moisture, pH, titratable acidity, antimicrobial activity) and sensory quality of pan bread were evaluated. The results of those characteristics for staling indicated that quality of pan bread was significantly extended by addition of GTE. Growth of microorganisms was significantly inhibited by adding GTE to pan bread, and sensory quality on pan bread added GTE was no significant differ in color, flavour, hardness, chewiness and overall-quality than that of control group(0% GTE). These results suggest that the shelf- life of pan bread was extended by GTE.

The effect of $CO_2$ concentration on the post-harvest physiology and quality of Shiitake mushroom (Lentinus edodes) were investigated during CA storage. The respiratory rates of the mushroom stored in CA conditions were abruptly increased in proportion to $CO_2$ concentration after 40 days, and then declined, while that of the mushroom in air was continuously decreased throughout storage period. Large amounts of ethanol and acetaldehyde were produced from the 20 days CA stored mushrooms. The least changes in 5'-GMP content and electrophoresis pattern of protein in the mushroom were observed at $CO_2$ concentration of 2% during storage. Based on the changes in quality factors of the mushroom during storage, it could be concluded that $CO_2$ concentration of 2% with fixed $O_2$ concentration of 2% was more effective in extension of the freshness than any other $CO_2$ level in this experiment.

Effects of dynamic high-pressure (DHP) treatments on microbial stability, vitamin C concentration, color, sugar content, color, and pH of strawberry juice were studied and compared with those of the conventional thermal treatment. Freshly prepared strawberry juice was thermally treated at $110^{\circ}C$ for 1 min or treated by DHP at 205 MPa and 20, 50, 60, or $70^{\circ}C$. The thermal treatment and the DHP treatments, both with and without integration with heating at $70^{\circ}C$, reduced the number of indigenous aerobic microorganisms by >6 log CFU/mL. Vitamin C concentration, color, and sugar content were higher in the DHP-treated juice than in the thermally treated juice, regardless of integration with heating. Compared to the thermal treatment, DHP treatments resulted in longer color retention and higher sugar contents in strawberry juice stored at $4^{\circ}C$ for 63 days. These results have demonstrated the potential use of DHP as a novel method for pasteurizing strawberry juice.

An electronic nose was applied to analyze the aroma patterns of powdered red ginseng that had been treated with different preservative methods, such as gamma radiation at 5kGy, commercial methyl bromide (MeBr) and phosphine fumigations. Aroma patterns of phosphine or MeBr, fumigated samples were well separated according to storage temperature and period. However, 5kGy-irradiated samples (stored for 1 and 2 months) were hardly discriminated by the different storage temperatures ($25^{\circ}C$ and $-10^{\circ}C$). After 5 months at $-10^{\circ}C$, non-treated and phosphine fumigated samples showed similar aroma patterns.

This study was conducted to prolong the edible period of Kimchi by adding high molecular chitosan(MW 800,000) and the product was evaluated for acid production(pH, titratable acidity), number of total viable cell, lactic acid bacteria, coli-form bacteria and sensory property during Kimchi fermentation at 10$^{\circ}C$. Kimchi added with the chitosan showed a retarded decrease in pH and increase in titratable acidity. Total microbial count and lactic acid bacteria of Kimchi added with chitosan(0.3%) were about 1.3 log(cfu/g) lower than those of control throughout the fermentation of 6 to 9 days. After 15 days of fermentation, coliform bacteria of all control and samples were decreased as 1.6∼2.3 log (cfu/g) level. Kimchi samples which were added with 0.1 % chitosan and fermented at 10$^{\circ}C$ for 6 days showed not only effective in prolonging the edible periods but also better sensory scores in acceptability.

This study analyzed the change of physical and chemical characteristics on the safflower seed produce coated edible film. L and a value of safflower seed product coated edible film were slowly increased during storage, while b value decreased. Moisture content were increased during storage. Acid valus welt less increased when edible film was ased. Peroxide values were also increased during storage, but peroxide value in products coated sodium caseinate or k-carraggenan was $50\%$ in the control after 30 days of storage. The value of sensual test was higher in products coated sodium caseinate or k-carraggenan than those of control. Coating with sodium caseinate or k-carraggenan was effective for acidification retardation and quality improvement of safflower seed products.

Leaf lettuce (Lactuca sativa L., var. crispa) packed in $20{\mu}m$ LDPE (perforated), $20{\mu}m$ LDPE, $30{\mu}m$ HDPE, and $40{\mu}m$ LDPE pouches was stored at $4^{\circ}C,\;10^{\circ}C\;and\;20^{\circ}C$. The quality of leaf lettuce during the storage was investigated in terms of weight loss, color, soluble solids content, texture and sensory properties. Leaf lettuce exhibited the highest storage stability at $4^{\circ}C$. Shelf-life of the packed leaf lettuce was prolonged approximately $10{\sim}15$ times in comparision with that of the unpacked under all temperature conditions. Among the packed leaf lettuce, self-life in $20{\mu}m$ LDPE (perforated) and $20{\mu}m$ LDPE pouches was relatively short mainly due to discoloration and deterioration. On the other hand, the quality of the leaf lettuce packed in $30{\mu}m$ HDPE and $40{\mu}m$ LDPE pouches was kept well during the storage. Particularly, $40{\mu}m$ LDPE pouches conferred the shelf-life superior to other film pouches.

The curd yogurt was prepared from milk added with skim milk powder or three Tongil rices of different storage period. The effect of storage period of rice on acid production by lactic acid bacteria in milk containing rice of 2%(w/v) was investigated. The effect of storage period of rice on quality of curd yogurt(sensory property, viscosity and keeping quality) was also examined. Addition of rice stimulated acid production by lactic acid bacteria more than control(milk yogurt). Storage period of rice did not significantly affect acid production by lactic acid bacteria though stimulating effect of rice on acid production was slightly different among species. Sensory property of curd yogurt added with rice was not significantly affected by storage period of rice. Apparent viscosity of curd yogurt added with rice increased in proportion to storage period of rice. Curd yogurt showed characteristics of thixotropic flow. When curd yogurt added with rice was kept at $5^{\circ}C$ for 15 days, its keeping quality was relatively good and was not markedly affected by storage period of rice.

To reduce the salt content of Korean traditional kochujang, horseradish and mustard powder (1.2%) were added to kochujang ingredients with $4{\sim}6%$ of sodium chloride, and their physicochemical characteristics were monitored with those of the control (10% salt added) during fermentation at $25^{\circ}C$ for 120 days. The pH of kochujang gradually decreased and acidities increased at low-salt concentration. The salt lowered the acid production in proportion to the salt concentration. The amino-type nitrogen in kochujang increased during fermentation at higher proportion with lower salt concentration. Free amino acids showed the same trend as amino-type nitrogen, and their major amino acids were in order of aspartic acid, glutamic acid, and serine. Kochujang containing horseradish or mustard showed superior qualuty than the control, and 6% of salt was the acceptable level for low-salt kochujang preparation.

Frozen dough made by sponge and dough method using sweet dough formula was quickly frozen at $-40^{\circ}C$ and stored for 8 weeks at $-20^{\circ}C$. Effects of vital wheat gluten on number of yeast cells, bread volume, specific loaf volume, hardness, and sensory properties of bread were investigated. Dough added with 4% vital wheat gluten showed higher yeast cell survival rate during freeze storage and larger specific loaf volume than other doughs. Hardness value increased with increasing amount of vital wheat gluten added, whereas, in frozen dough stored more than 4 weeks, dough added with 2% vital wheat gluten showed lower hardness value than others. Bread made with 4% vital wheat gluten showed highest sensory score.
